Modular wall panels having a frame of a plurality of frame components and at least one wall sheet affixed to the frame. Each frame component includes an outer surface with at least one aperture configured to receive and retain an insert therein. The apertures are also configured to permit a cable(s) to pass therethrough for running cables and such through the interior of the wall panel. The frame components may have angled ends, straight ends, or a combination thereof to collectively form a frame which may include corners. A wall system includes a plurality of such wall panels connected to one another along the outer surfaces of the frame components of their respective frames. Connectors and spacers may be inserted into the apertures as inserts and bridge between adjacent panels to selectively connect the panels. Caps may be placed in empty apertures to cover the openings for aesthetic purposes.

A modular construction system, including, first and second walls, each having first and second broad surfaces. Each wall includes throughgoing connector-receiving bores. The modular construction system further includes a connector including a longitudinal body portion arranged along a longitudinal axis and having a first width. A head portion of the longitudinal body portion includes a base surface having a second width in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis. A pair of protrusions extend outwardly from the longitudinal body portion and are disposed between the base surface and a tail end of the longitudinal body portion. The protrusions include an engagement surface facing toward the base surface and having a third width, the third width being greater than the first width.

Various implementations described herein are directed to a formwork system. In one implementation, the formwork system includes aluminum extrusions and aluminum castings. The aluminum castings and the aluminum extrusions can be assembled by being pressed and riveted together.

Wall blocks, veneers, veneer connectors, walls, and methods of constructing walls are provided. More particularly, the invention relates to constructing walls in which a veneer panel is attached to a wall block with a connector and in which the front faces of the veneers have a desirable texture.

A construction system for a module of a dwelling the main elements of which are made of plastic material includes a set of hollow profiled beams (1, 1′) of elongate rectilinear shape of type 1 and of type 2. The beams (1, 1′) include at each end (5, 5′) a transverse passage opening (6, 6′). The transverse passage opening (6) of a beam (1) of type 1 comes to be nested with the transverse passage opening (6′) of a beam (1′) of type 2 when the two beams (1, 1′) are assembled end to end at a right angle leaving a passage opening (6, 6′) between the two ends (5, 5′) of the beams (1, 1′). Two beams (1) of type 1 can be assembled with two beams (1′) of type 2 to form a rectangular frame. The system further includes a set of corner assembly elements (2, 2′), each assembly element (2, 2′) including a body intended to pass through the transverse passage opening (6, 6′) of the beams (1, 1′) of type 1 and 2. The system also includes a set of plates (3) that can be assembled between two beams (1) of type 1 when assembled or two beams (1′) of type 2 when assembled to form a rectangular frame, and a set of posts (11) of hollow rectangular section the hollow ends of which come to be nested over a corner assembly element (2, 2′) of a rectangular frame formed of beams (1, 1′) of type 1 and of type 2 so as to form a three-dimensional framework. The posts (11) include longitudinal rails or grooves (8) on two adjacent surfaces to receive other plates (3′) between the posts (11) during assembly. Each hollow profile beam (1, 1′) including along an upper surface spaced rails or grooves (8) intended to receive said other plates (3′).

A block used for constructing a wall, where the block is configured with a front wall angled inward and downward, forming a triangular interior space into which soil can be placed, such that plants placed in the soil will have access to the sun and rain due to the angled front wall of the block placed above it, thereby providing an integrated vegetated wall.
